I'm just trying to gauge how good it can get once you get through the bad times to see if I can get to the point where I can manage both careers. I know some lawyers do fly for airlines.
If your a lawyer stay doing it... this isnt a hobby its a career. What your doing is the worst thing for this career because you would fly for 2$ an hour because you really dont care what you get paid.
So your looking to drop trips down to the min so you can fly and be a lawyer while there is people out there trying to get a job so they can make a career out of this. Go be a flight Instructor on the weekends.
